Big fan of Quaver, its a community-driven, and open-source competitive rhythm game.

tentaclius,

Cataclysm DDA is amazing if you are into this stuff.

LegitNerd,

Another shout-out for Sonic Robo Blast! I absolutely love that game.

CrypticCoffee,

I really like MineClone2 (a Minetest game).

Noughmad,

Definitely Neverball. My kids and I spent so many hours in it.

OpenTTD is good, so is TuxKart, but both have better closed-source alternatives. I don’t think Neverball does.

Stoneblackdog,

SuperTuxKart is really good with friends.

prokyonid,

Warzone 2100. 3D RTS from the late 90s that was open-sourced after the studio went belly-up. Fantastic game, runs on even ancient hardware.

Edit to add: Forgot to mention it is still receiving updates!

No one is saying Shattered Pixel Dungeon?
Because I say Shattered Pixel Dungeon.

JillyB,

I played vanilla pixel dungeon years ago and recently picked it back up. What’s the difference with Shattered?

Professor_Lavahot,

Shattered has added a lot more polish, some story elements, some more interesting bosses and challenges, and removed the frustrating weapon breakdown element. It’s under active development, whereas I think the vanilla game is now a dead fork.

JillyB,

Ok I’m sold

While vanilla was promising, it always had that “school project” kind of vibe. Shattered, intead, is a full fledged, really polished game with active development.
Among the new features there are new sub-missions (with a new one in development right now), new enemies and bosses, a new playable character and re-balanced mechanics overall.
Stongly suggested, you can even find it on f-droid

JillyB,

I think I’ll pick that up. When I quit playing years ago, it was because I felt like I had solved the game. Maybe my strategy wasn’t optimal but it was as good as I could get it and I was purely relying on luck to get deeper. If shattered can add more depth then I’m down.

In terms of games I actually play, Cataclysm: DDA (even if I still suck at it after hundreds of hours).

In terms of technical/visual impressiveness, Veloren.

Crozekiel,

Omg I looked at veloren and I’m going to have to try that… I spent so many hours in cube world when it first went early access (before the dev went radio silent for 5 years and then released on steam, lol)

s12,

I really enjoyed Minedustry. Also, does Katawa Shoujo count?

Lix – https://www.lixgame.com/
FOSS Lemmings, with many great features (like multiplayer) and active development.

@sleepybisexual You know what, I could link my articles from a few years ago. It's been a while, so some of newer Open Source games are missing from these lists.

Nilz,

Jeez, thanks for this blast from the past. I remember a lot of these from my early Linux experiments over a decade ago.

I forgot half these games existed. Thanks for sharing!
